| Amendment No. 3 is being issued to provide a fully amended and restated NFO for the SAFE Activity.

The amended and restated NFO No. 72067319RFA00001 is included as an attachment to the amendment. A summary of the significant changes made by Amendment No. 3 follows. As this summary is not comprehensive, potential applicants should refer to the full text of the attachment.

Dec 14, 2018 | |
| Amendment number 2 is being issued to place the application process for the subject NFO on hold for an indefinite period. It is anticipated that a future amendment to this NFO will be posted in the near future. As this activity is funded under the United States President’s Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR), it is subject to the approval of the U.S. Global AIDS Coordinator and Special Representative for Global Health Diplomacy and the annual Country Operational Plan, which could result in changes to the anticipated activity.
Until such a further amendment to the NFO is posted, USAID will not be accepting applications for the SAFE Activity. Accordingly, potential applicants should refrain from submitting applications at this time. |
